In terms of size, I haven't seen any difference between my laser
printer and Lulu's print. However, the print seems slightly "thinner"
at Lulu, so if you use a very thin font, it may be appear very light
in print. If you have fine line-drawings (such as scans of pencil
drawings), they may be at risk too. I would advice ordering a test
copy before making the book public on Lulu.
